Allograft rejection is associated with donor-recipient microvasculature loss. a Lectin binding assay of whole-mount tracheal grafts on d6, d8, and d10. Original magnification, ×20. b, c Tissue pO2 (Mean ± SE, mmHg) and Blood perfusion (Mean ± SE, units) were plotted over different time points. d Quantitative RT-PCR analysis shows fold change in HIF1-α mRNA at d6 post-transplantation. Data are presented as means with SE of 6–12 transplants/time point/experiment. *p < 0.05
